Commercial Roof Repair in El Cajon, CA
1028 Broadway, El Cajon, CA 92021
Multi-Tenant Commercial Retail Building
Project Overview
About This Project
Interior ceiling stains indicated an active flat roof failure at this multi-tenant property. The modified bitumen system had undergone multiple patch repairs over time, but seasonal rainfall continued to expose weakened seams and deteriorated flashing along parapet walls. A comprehensive evaluation identified three primary leak sources: membrane separation, localized ponding areas, and compromised flashing transitions. The repair restored waterproof continuity, reinforced vulnerable membrane sections, corrected drainage issues, and extended the existing system's service life without full replacement.
Initial Assessment

- Open seams along membrane overlaps allowing water entry
- Blistering from trapped moisture beneath the surface
